A radiation detection apparatus includes a housing that includes an incidence surface and a back surface located on the opposite side of the incidence surface, a sensor panel that is housed in the housing and configured to convert radiation incident from the incidence surface into an electrical signal, a conductive plate that is housed in the housing and extends in a direction intersecting with a normal to the incidence surface, and an antenna element housed in the housing. The conductive plate is located between the sensor panel and the back surface. The antenna element is located between the conductive plate and the back surface. The antenna element includes a portion that extends in the direction intersecting with the normal to the incidence surface. The conductive plate is configured to function as a ground for the antenna element.

Radiation detection apparatus

A radiation detection apparatus includes a housing having an incident face and a side face, a reflective member accommodated within the housing, the reflective member having a reflective face which reflects radio waves, and an antenna element accommodated within the housing. The side face of the housing includes a conductor region and a transmissive region, the transmissive region having a higher radio wave transmittance than the conductor region. The reflective member is disposed in a position at which a first radio wave, which proceeds directly from the antenna element toward the transmissive region, and a second radio wave, which reaches the reflective face from the antenna element and is reflected toward the transmissive region by the reflective face, strengthen each other.
